Gotta be from floor IMO. Logs are easier to press than a barbell (at same weight) so if you want the ease in that part of the RoM then you're gonna have to deal with it being a bitch from the floor IMO :tongue:.


Fair enough. I disagree about logs being easier to press though. Large diameter logs I find about 10kg harder than a barbell. Balance mainly. Video'd in my blog.

In a comp it's always off tyres or short blocks since the log deadlift step is easy anyway. Log weighs 80+small 5kg plates. Video'd on my blog.

With thin logs and standard sized plates it's easy from the floor since you have space for feet.

Tbh I may go for a new barbell FTOH pb this week, reckon 95 is there.


Idk tbh, I've watch the vid and I'm not sure, say if there was a standard sized plate like a bumper etc - you could have probs had it from the floor, so yeah.. I have no idea whether to count that as from the floor or not

Say no, I'm still behind appeal to reason anyway.

I'll do a continental clean and push press on a bar for 95 on Monday. Maybe.

Agree. Did 130kg for 5x3 last week so 145 should be manageable
